Sustainability management and reporting solutions provider Speeki announced the launch of “Speeki Academy,” a new platform aimed at offering training to professionals looking to gain ESG, sustainability and corporate responsibility-related skills.

The new platform is being introduced as demand for sustainability-related skills is increasing globally as companies and countries globally begin to take action on implementing their climate and sustainability-related commitments, and to meet growing sustainability reporting and regulatory compliance requirements. Speeki said that it launched the new courses after seeing growing demand for skills in these areas.

The new platform is being launched with courses designed around four key focus areas, including the “ESG and Sustainability Academy,” covering ESG strategy, materiality assessments and reporting with alignment to frameworks such as IFRS S1 and S2, CSRD, ESRS, GHG reporting and the EU Taxonomy; “Sustainability Management Academy,” addressing how to lead sustainability initiatives and drive practical, strategic improvements; “Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Academy,” focusing on regulatory frameworks such as Germany’s LkSG and the EU’s CSDDD, and best practices for planning and managing due diligence programmes, and; “Governance Academy,” covering topics ranging from anti-bribery and corruption, and modern slavery to whistleblowing and AI, with a focus on fostering ethical and effective governance.

Additional areas expected to be introduced soon to the platform include the ESG Assurance and ISO Management Systems Academy and the Supply Chain and Procurement Academy.

Scott Lane, CEO and Founder of Speeki, said:

“At Speeki Academy, our approach is to assist organizations worldwide to meet the growing demands of ESG and sustainability by providing practical knowledge, industry expertise and tools to drive meaningful change.”
